    Do you believe this about Russell Wilson?

    The test was designed to weed out job applicants. So, I assume that it holds value in showing that the prospect put some effort into their studies and prepared for the draft. Personally, I don't think it holds much value to evaluate someone's ability to quickly process a play call, though...

    Do you believe this about Russell Wilson?

    Judging by the Wonderlic sample questions, Russell's score does not indicate much. Here's an example from the Indy Star. Find the word that doesn't belong: A: Inch B: Meter C: Centimeter D: Kilometer Honestly, the whole sample test feels like something you'd only score poorly on if you...

    Do you believe this about Russell Wilson?

    The opening line of that article is ridiculous. Russ signing with Pittsburgh wasn't a notable seismic event. What I don't understand about Russ's situation is that we've heard he has an elite work ethic—first in, last out. What the heck is he doing with his time at team facilities if not...

    Do we have a playoff roster?

    John basically said they fired Pete because the team underperformed. On paper, the team is better. So, a playoff roster should be the expectation.

    Deion Sanders says Shedeur & Hunter will decide where they play

    Sure, but your argument removes agency from the players. When, in reality, the players chose to accept terms that allowed the draft to exist. So, there really is nothing illegal there. It's similar to an exclusivity agreement with a cellphone provider, where the arrangement might technically...

    Deion Sanders says Shedeur & Hunter will decide where they play

    The primary reason the draft hasn't come under legal scrutiny is that the players agreed to it. There is nothing inherently illegal about it. Mutually beneficial compromises happen in every market.

    Deion Sanders says Shedeur & Hunter will decide where they play

    The NFL is an industry with rules to ensure competitiveness. Nothing mandates these kids to play in the league, so if they want to work in a profession that allows them to choose where they live, they can. Calling playing in the NFL "indentured servitude" is ridiculous. Indentured servants don't...

    Geno for Cousins?

    Considering Cousin's recent injury, I can't imagine Seattle even considering this.

    POLL: What If Byron Was Our Only Pick?

    This is the most depth and talent they've had on the D-Line in years, so expectations should be pretty high for the unit. Will Murphy put them over the top next season? Eh, I wouldn't place too many marbles on a rookie deciding the season. I just hope he's not LJ Collier.

    Mike Salk goes in on Richard Sherman

    Salk is right. Sherman has made it pretty clear that he thinks Seattle fans owe him something. Whenever someone disagrees with him, he disparages them by describing how Seattle was nothing before he arrived. He takes every little thing as a slight against him. He's toxic. Not worth following...

    Adams and Diggs still unsigned

    I wouldn't read too much into it. The safety market is over-saturated. For example, Justin Simmons was second-team all-pro last year and is in the same boat as Adams and Diggs. I'd expect both to find a home after the draft.

    Mike MacDonald removes Carroll related Seahawks imprint

    This is a non-story. Macdonald is the head coach. He should do whatever it takes to motivate players, send whatever messages he needs to send, and leave his imprint on the organization. No offense to the author, but we're one step removed from an article saying, 'Mike Macdonald Rearranges Pete...

    Rashaad Penny visits Seattle

    This. If Penny's cheap (and I can't imagine he wouldn't be), he's a potential game-breaking talent when healthy. You obviously don't want to rely on him. But if Penny can give you two or three good weeks when Walker or Charbonnet miss time, he's exactly the kind 3rd string RB you'd want.

    Breda Report: The Vilification of Russell Wilson

    Russell did not change much. He has always been the same guy. Time and success have a way of revealing who people truly are. Watch interviews of Russ in college or his rookie season. He was fairly open about wanting to be some combination of Derek Jeder, Kobe Bryant, and Jay-Z, which makes...

    Nwosu speaks out. Eyebrow raising read.

    Even if you take Nwosu's comments to the extreme, his point is that sometimes change can bring out the best in people. And given the author has pumped out eight new articles in 2 days (all of questionable quality), I think it's fair to assume he's not making an honest inference on Nwosu's...
